Poor man's Edition 'M'?

Howdy,

I was fascinated to see the Edition 'M' as I have a UK 316 that looks very similar- Hennarot, painted mirrors, black Zender spoiler, reflective rear bit between lights and Mahle/BBS cross spokes. The only thing I'm missing is the air dam, although I have it (BBS) in the shed. Oh, also the black stripes. What I'm missing is two cylinders!

UK dealers copying the Edition M for 316s or a 'new' special edition?!

Oh, I had to replace the bonnet recently and so need new stripes- the thicker lower and thinner upper ones- do they have a name? Available? Also present on some lucky man's E12 M535i in my car park.

Interested to know what people think!

Cheers,

J

Well most likely the 1st owner checked some options to get to that spec, they were all available to all E21 models.

My car had those strips before its respray. I assumed they were after-market! I want them back now!
